Well, good morning everyone. It's so good to hear and see the row call this morning in the Temple of Light. It's wondrous that we found our way here, and I have been marveling at the divine mechanisms that we've been given to navigate as we live—and what's been referred to as Shekinah. And in that spirit, I would invite us to open with a devotion.
O Lord of Love, our hearts are full of thanks for the exquisite invitation to Thy Temple, Thy Home. We understand, with great privilege comes great responsibility, and we accept it all with firm and strong agreement that this is the Way. How lovely is thy dwelling place, O Lord! Amen.

Well, David has told me that this is the twelfth Temple of Light service, and it's good to feel the expansion of the Temple. I suppose there's an expansion in numbers but what I'm referring to is the expansion of the pattern of Shekinah—the victory of that. It is a good celebration. And not to live on laurels, but I was particularly delighted in the last Temple of Light service when mention was made of our legacy of victory. The very creation of this Celestial Home for our LORD and KING—now there's a victory—the sustained provision, and care for His Home: 155,000 years. Victory. And after the falling asleep, victorious spirits have been rising, knowing that there's something more than the mere surface play of existence on this planet, trusting that vision from within, and moving forward courageously, even counterintuitively in many ways, to reveal the fire falling, the glowing light, and the cloud of glory, exceedingly, despite anything that was going on in their circumstances at the time. What victory! What beings! I sense that all victorious beings have something quite in common. They've all made the right choice. They trusted that part of their divine circuitry which led them face-to-face with the highest vibration of love known. They had the courage to do what Uranda described as to “Keep coming Blessed Ones”, no matter what purification or seeming discomfort it might have entailed; and as a result, the Shekinah pattern was made manifest on this planet. Victory.
And I'm thinking of something in the earthly sense that those of us here on line, as I watched the check-in occur, that we have in common, and that is that we were able to walk into, as it were, an already manifest—not merely existing in heaven, but manifest in the earth—Shekinah pattern. There was a cloud of glory, and I absolutely relish the stories that I've heard from many of you, of what it was like for you, and what the circumstances were when you first touched that cloud of glory. In so many cases there was a, I guess you could say, reconciliation occurring between what had been one’s earthly experience so far and what was being intuited in the moment, at those higher vibrational levels.
I remember my first walk on Sunrise Ranch. Nick Giglio (later Nick Gordon) was my guide. We were looking at things, and he was showing me how the physical aspect of the Ranch was laid out, and we found ourselves at one point standing by the sewage treatment area, and I was filled with awe that this was the most wonderful thing in the world; and I thought to myself afterwards, “Boy, if you can feel that kind of wonder standing by the sewer, what in the world is going on in this place?” And I had to know, I had to come to learn what was going on in that place, and as I did, I developed associations which led me to work and play and sing and live in ways that I hadn't lived before; and there was a glow about my being, as there was a glow about the beings that I shared the experience with. As time went by, I came to learn, as we all did, that that glow came from a particular fire—a fire that burns in the heart of the One Who Dwells, Who is One with our Father, the Prime Source of the highest vibration of love. What precious moments when this love was consummated. I suppose we could say, the fire falls from heaven into the earth of one’s being, and of one's entire world with which one is connected. The cloud of glory then permeates everything, lifting everything into infinite possibility, and the expansion of the body of the KING on earth.
Something else that I'd like to mention relative to this is that I have found that it's an ongoing process. I see, from looking at all of us that we're a bit longer in the tooth now than we were when we first arrived, and that's just fine. But the adventure, contrary to world beliefs, does not dampen nor abate in any manner with the increase of age—rather the fire intensifies, as it is designed to. We're in the maturation process. There is the requirement of utilizing one's divine circuitry. And I'd really like to focus here on the Spirit of the Single Eye, to discern, even under immense patterns of pressure. Martin told us to welcome pressure. Yes! That's how the work gets done. It's not a wimpy thing. It requires one who is all in, with nothing held back or else, you might say, there can be danger.
I had an experience, speaking of the early days, living in the center in Colorado Springs, and we were in a beautiful, but old, Victorian home that was the Emissary center there and it needed a new roof; and we, the men, agreed that we could and would do it the most economical way, by doing it ourselves. We had to be on a very steep incline to do the work. And the way this was managed physically was that a very substantial eye-bolt was driven into the beam that made up the apex of the roof, and that provided us with a secure anchor point to which we could attach our ropes; and we were each in a device that could hold us, and that held our ropes. But what was interesting about the process was that in order for the system to work we had to do something quite counterintuitive; we actually had to trust the ropes with our lives. In other words, we had to lean back; and it was the leaning back on the rope that caused our legs to go from an unstable, narrow angle relative to the roof, where we could easily lose our footing, to a stable, 90-degree angle relative to the roof, a safer position where our body weight was driven straight into the roof creating a solid footing, and there was stability. We could hop and move about quite fluidly on the roof, carrying shingles, hammering, doing whatever, and the job got done—it got done beautifully. But there was one among us who could not trust the rope, could not lean back into it; and he had injuries because of it. He was scrambling on the shingles and bloodying his arms and his knees, and he had to come down for a time. It wasn't right for him, but the principle did not change. The rope had to be trusted to be safe in what it was that had to be done.
Similarly, the Single Eye must be trusted, has to be tried and true in our experience, to show us the way, to discern what is required in noisy situations, in smoky and confusing situations. The Single Eye is not confused. The Single Eye knows where the Lord of Love is, and can direct us to how our response can be offered. It's true, and it's strong. But it isn't strong if we don't trust it, just like the rope. When I would lean back on the rope that rope would become taught. It was a direct straight line to apex. Thus, it is with our trust, in the LORD, through the equipment that we've been given, the Spirit of the Single Eye, that we find His Holy Throne, the Temple of Light, in whatever situation, and dwell therein, trusting the rest of the equipment to take care of the situation as needs be.
There is a story that has, I think, underlined this necessity, in the Bible. And in this situation, Elijah was living in a time where the children of Israel had drifted into, you might say, a lukewarm place. A lukewarm place is not a safe place to dwell. And there were cosmic elements at play, disturbances in the weather pattern, severe drought, and starvation was a real possibility. In other words, the crisis had gotten the people's attention. Today I would ask how much of the people's attention focused on crisis? I believe Elijah's attention in this situation was focused on opportunity—opportunity to serve the One he loved. And the factors go on, relative to what was happening. There were political stakes in the matter. Queen Jezebel and Ahab did not want the people of Israel to give their response to the LORD or the LORD’s steward, because they wanted it for themselves—and the wealth and everything else that goes with it; and they put up a fuss. And they also put out disinformation. Again, sound familiar? They said, “Look, we've got this covered. The prophets of Baal here are connected to Baal and he'll (pardon the pun) bail you out.” But not so. The drought continued and the pressure built; and a contest was consequently arranged in order to prove once and for all, and establish where the power was. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2019/03/behold-elijah-is-here-youtube-video.html] This is from the English Standard Version of the Bible, First Kings, 18:20-39:
“So Ahab sent to all the people of Israel and gathered the prophets together at Mount Carmel. And Elijah came near to all the people and said, ‘How long will you go limping between two different opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.’ And the people did not answer him a word.”—They were stuck in the middle, it looks like—“Then Elijah said to the people, ‘I, even I only, am left a prophet of the Lord, but Baal's prophets are 450 men.”—So it wasn’t a matter of numbers—“Let two bulls be given to us, and let them choose one bull for themselves and cut it in pieces and lay it on the wood, but put no fire to it. And I will prepare the other bull and lay it on the wood and put no fire to it. And you call upon the name of your god, and I will call upon the name of the Lord, and the God who answers by fire, he is God.’ And all the people answered, ‘It is well spoken.’ Then Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, ‘Choose for yourselves one bull and prepare it first, for you are many, and call upon the name of your god, but put no fire to it.’ And they took the bull that was given them, and they prepared it and called upon the name of Baal from morning until noon, saying, ‘O Baal, answer us!’ But there was no voice, and no one answered. And they limped around the altar that they had made. And at noon Elijah mocked them, saying, ‘Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is musing, …or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep and must be awakened.’ And they cried aloud and cut themselves after their custom with swords and lances, until the blood gushed out upon them. And as midday passed, they raved on until the time of the offering of the oblation, but there was no voice. No one answered; no one paid attention.
“Then Elijah said to all the people, ‘Come near to me.’ And all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the Lord that had been thrown down. Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the Lord came, saying, ‘Israel shall be your name,’ and with the stones he built an altar in the name of the Lord. And he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two… measures of seed. And he put the wood in order and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. And he said, ‘Fill four jars with water and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.’ And he said, ‘Do it a second time.’ And they did it a second time. And he said, ‘Do it a third time.’ And they did it a third time. And the water ran around the altar and filled the trench also with water.
“And at the time of the offering of the oblation, Elijah the prophet came near and said, ‘O Lord, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word. Answer me, O Lord, answer me, that this people may know that you, O Lord, are God, and that you have turned their hearts back.’ Then the fire of the Lord fell and consumed the burnt offering and the wood and the stones and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces and said, ‘The Lord, he is God; the Lord, he is God.’”
I love the symbology here. I also recognize that this story is not primarily historic; that if it means anything it is right now—all the complicating factors that exist in the story are present in any human life today, factors that could confuse, that could distract, that could disable response to the highest vibration of love. And yet, when there is one present who has seen, through the Spirit of the Single Eye, and been guided to that highest love, has made the right choice, who has given all, there is an energetic field present that comes down, and fills in, and brings out the most exquisite Presence. And when that occurs, a clear choice can be made by those who have heretofore been blind, because the Single Eye has been used, and the way has been paved, and it becomes a bit more of a no brainer, as it were. But someone somewhere, somehow, must be on hand to do it—otherwise there is no vision, and as it's been said, when there is no vision, the people perish.
I mentioned earlier in our time this morning of the wonderful experience of walking into, or coming upon in life, the Shekinah pattern already in place, manifest, indisputable, robust. And yet I marvel at the responsiveness of Uranda to that voice within, when there was precious little evidence of any kind beyond what he was seeing through the Single Eye. He talks about it here, in Instruction Paper Number 43, on March 17, 1952 in the Divine Design of Man: [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2017/01/seven-uranda-march-17-1952-from.html]
“When the Spirit of the Single Eye begins to manifest we find everything becoming centered. We remember the expression that is found in the Word: ‘Where there is no vision, the people perish.’ We can turn that around: ‘Where there is true vision, the people live.’ True vision depends upon the reality of the Single Eye. Our Master said, ‘The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness’—for double-minded vision causes the body to be full of darkness. We remember the passage in James: ‘A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.’”
“I wonder if we should pause for a moment to meditate upon that passage in James. By the way, I might mention that back in 1930 when, from the standpoint of the outer consciousness, I was seeking to find something to take hold of, something as a starting point toward a movement out of the darkness and chaos of the world, I found I remembered this text. I had memorized it as a boy but for years had not read the Bible. But at this time, from an outer standpoint there was a recognition compelled that there had to be something more than the world offered. This text provided the starting point for my own consciousness, in the outer sense, in finding the Way, the Truth, and the Life…”
And he speaks of holding that, nothing wavering whatsoever, and he underlines the fact that when it is held it shall be given by the Lord, who is not stingy. He also points out that the double minded man shall not receive anything of the Lord:
“We have the positive promise that when we function correctly ‘it shall be given him.’ But there is just as positive a statement: ‘For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.’—that is the double minded man—It is available from the Lord but he will not receive it, because of his double-mindedness. ‘For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways’… That was the starting point from the standpoint of my outer consciousness in movement toward that pattern which God had designed for my manifestation on earth.”
I marvel—that was 1930. The vision which was the initiation of the Third Sacred School did not occur for two years, but he understood the meaning of that text, and he held, he dwelled in the spirit of the constancy that it evokes until something wondrous could come through consciousness that certainly has blessed those of us online; but ultimately it blesses the whole world, and beyond. This is the Divine Blueprint. This is the way for the establishment of the perfect control pattern that is already in heaven, in the earth, because through it living souls can participate in Life—something so wondrous.
And yet there has been delay, as it would seem. What was that? 92 years ago. Now, I'm not going to judge the timing. That wouldn't make sense at all. But I would observe, it would appear that mankind has been debating: “Let's see now— the return of absolute paradise on the planet or squalor, degradation, violence and death. Let's see now—what shall it be?” Martin used to speak sarcastically about human nature, and if I might join him on that just for a moment, it doesn't appear that human nature is the brightest thing in the world—you know! Speaking of Martin, I'd love to share with you this part that he spoke [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/2017/04/from-martin-cecil-february-12-1984-what.html] regarding the Spirit of the Single Eye, from February 12, 1984:
“Choose ye now whom ye will serve: yourself, as a human being, or what has been called God, what reveals itself in the expression of Shekinah. Let the fire fall from heaven. Anyone is capable of that. And if they don’t let it happen, well that is their choice. If that is their choice it is going to have certain results, just as there are certain results if the right choice is made…
“Nobody knows what life is until Shekinah does find expression and the cloud of glory fills the temple of one’s own body and shines round about. Then the whole world of one’s consciousness lights up, the shadows flee away—there is nothing to accuse, there is nothing to blame. All is just exactly the way it should be. And we have the opportunity of giving constant glory to God—and share in the spirit of the single eye.”
What a rich inheritance indeed! And we come to understand with the process of maturation that the wonders of heaven are for government, not entertainment. It's been spoken, and I would agree that in fact we are in what's been referred to as the end times. Praise God! The time for silly debates is over; and I would suggest, and certainly admit, that I am complicit in the proclamation that these are the end times. And I suspect each one on this line voiced, with Martin, the Angelic Proclamation along the way, stating in agreement that mankind shall be restored, and all artificial systems shall be no more, and that only the Glorious One shall rule. Praise God!
And yet, there is what's been referred to as “compassion” which, in appropriate balance, under the control of spirit, has its place; but even good wishes for our fellow men, women, and children at some point cannot rule. Consciousness has been invited to what's been referred to as the fourth vibrational level—a glassy sea, as it's been referred to; with not a ripple, not a ripple of my opinion. Anyone there knows that was left in the lower levels. In this place there is oneness with the creative process—with no debate; no “what abouts”; no, “on the other hand”; no, “but wouldn't it be nice”. Nary a peep from that voice. Only resounding praise for the One Almighty God. Reading from The Book of Grace, in Revelation 15:1-3,8 it's put this way:
“And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.” And Grace points out here that the wrath of God is merely the working of the Law. “And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire…” And grace interjects, “A state of pure vibrational substance alive with radiance.” “…and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.”
“And they sing the song of Moses… and… of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.” And the Grace points out: “Interspersed throughout the Book of Revelation is the persistence of praising God, of never attributing to Him anything but justice, regardless of what outer events might indicate.”
A sea of glass mingled with fire—and Shekinah expands, robustly, firmly, enfolding, enveloping, and receiving this whole precious earth, all for the use and pleasure of He Who sent me. Each one may say, “Let it be so in this day.”
That would conclude what I would have to say at this moment, and I would love to hear the words of what's moving in His precious body.
Davina Misroch — Robert, this is Davina calling you from London; with very deep passion and agreement for all that you have proffered in this session? I love the absolute. The Spirit of the Single Eye is the ultimate absolute. There's no equivocation, no tremor—pure, clear, straight vibration. I note how much your offering, in so many ways, has straightened and strengthened the spiritual backbone, which Martin loved so much. I can say "me", but it is with all of us on this call I'm sure! These words that you uttered clearly and with purpose are a powerful emanation from the KING, for which I thank you, and I acknowledge you. God bless you, blessed one.
Millicent Holliday — Robert, you were a personification of your name. I just looked at what “Robert” meas, while you were speaking, and it means “bright”—bright merriment! It was such a joy to share in this precious time with you, to see and love that light that burns in your eyes, and to know that it is this light that we breathe into our world, if light can be breathed—we shine into our world. And I’m just delighting in every minute of your presentation. I know if Uranda and Martin were here they would be clapping their hands with joy that their work was not in vain, because we are here to continue in this day and allow our radiance to be revealed in in the world. And there is so much that fills my heart, I feel I could just go on and on, but I will give others time to delight as well. Thank you.
Christina Pivarnik — I echo that delight and joy Robert. What the deep pleasure to be with you and everyone in the Single Eye—absolutely gorgeous, thank you. We have this great privilege and honor to represent the KING in everything that we do and touch. I had a fascinating experience yesterday, and I'd like to briefly share some of that. We needed to do a little shopping, and my husband and I came out of Target, and the parking lot is kind of a small with various stores around the perimeter; there was this glorious sound of music, and as we listened it was “Alleluia”, and it was being played by two people, each on an accordion, resounding across the parking lot, with joy and just worship—I can only say that—in the middle of the parking lot. My husband, being the musician that he is, said, “Do you have any cash?” And I go, “Cash?” And he goes, “Yeah, we gotta give them a tip.” So we pulled over, scrambled in our wallets, pulled out whatever cash we could find, and we drove over to these two people playing accordion—young people, probably in their twenties, just glowing, beaming, and as we got closer to give them the cash, they held up a sign that said, “We both lost our jobs. Thank you.” Well, I thought I might cry right then and there. We gave them the cash; and the woman while she's playing “Alleluia”, and her face is aglow, says, “God bless you!” And I said, “God bless you!” And I thought, how beautiful that somebody in a rough situation flipped it around in praise and thanksgiving, offering their heart and soul to anybody that would listen and hear it. I thought it was just a beautiful illustration of what we can find in this world as we look, and keep our eyes and our heart to open, that we may bring the spirit of the KING right into that moment with this couple, and help them rise up as they were working their way through whatever situation. I feel that when we have these hours together, it's our opportunity to share attunement to our greater worlds, to our own individual worlds, and to mankind as a whole. And it's just been lovely to have this time of single-eyed worship, and to dwell always on the sea of glass, with a fire coming down from heaven into all of our earth. Thank you.
David Barnes — Robert, it's such a great joy to be with you in this fine vibration, brother. It's good to call you brother, good to know you. Good to be connected at the apex with you, swinging on this line—you over there, me over here, stabilized on the end of the line. And with others as well, each on the end of the line, forming a base of the triangle that's connected at the top, with the LORD—free to move in the heaven, as we did this morning in this rich and rarefied atmosphere; free to move in the earth with wisdom, unafraid to let go and lean back and bring the fire of the Son, of our own true nature, into the world. Let the fire be here. Through the hour that we spent with you the phrase, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth” came so much to mind. Blessed are the meek, for they are unashamed to praise the LORD, for they know what it is to praise the LORD in reality. It's not some religious muttering that's going on, it’s a knowing. Shekinah is here. I am here. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. The earth is theirs. The Lord trusts the meek on earth. He trusts the meek with His earth. He knows that they have a Single Eye connected at the apex, and they have a Single Eye connected downward relative to what needs to occur in the earth, undeviating relative to that field of service below. But more importantly, unashamed to praise the LORD—to bring only that which has been missing into the Temple of Light, that there are those on earth who bring this with passion, with humility, with meekness. “For I am meek and lowly of heart. Take my yoke upon you, connected at the top, and learn of Me. Be Me. Be Shekinah. Be the focus of spirit. So on this Twelfth Day of Temple of Light services, moving into the Thirteenth—one year—who could have thought that we would be sharing this, all of us together with you at this time, letting the fire fall in this way. I never dreamed it way back then. And what will come in the days ahead, as others who are the Priesthood, the Living Altar, priests and priestesses in the Order of Melchizedek on earth who know that that is so, step forward in the Temple and bring their Word of great joy, revealing the fact that they are unashamed to praise the LORD. Your meekness of spirit is a wonder Robert, because it isn't just about you. It's about the One who sent you and me to do this work. As you said at the beginning, we can perceive the holy space expanding, and the meek have the capacity to tend that holy space with one-pointed focus. There is joy in that, fulfillment—fulfillment today, being with you. Thank you.
Laura Fisher — Thank you gentlemen, and all the wonderful women that spoke—and thank you, Robert. Thank you for storytelling in the true way. The stories you told that are ancient and brilliant, live now through us. I build an altar of stone and wood and oxen. We build an altar. The words that David just spoke are building the altar, and we fully expect the fire to come, which is why we prepare deep roots into the earth, high roots into the heavens, and we stand and let the fire come through us. Your words this morning, are immediately here, and we join you here in this alter time. There is proof across the world that it is working—and definitely proof in our own lives. There is no need for turbulence, because we are here. I thank you, my friend.
Arno Van Haght — We are here, and I love the fact that you brought the reality of that again. The LORD has an amazing way to bring to remembrance, while reconciling and rebuking at the same time, because the Lord of Love can only be known because the truth is present as the conductor of the reality of His Presence. And then there is light. Those three times around the altar that the water was thrown—the symbol of the presence of the Lord of the Sacred Three that is present, that allows for the fire from heaven to be conducted, under control, and let the Temple be lit up—the Temple of our own bodies, of our own consciousness, so that it may be filled with light, but that the love might be known. And Robert you allowed that to be the reality; you allowed for the bull-headedness to be cut in pieces and placed on the altar. You allowed for that. You allowed for the constructs of right and wrong, for the LORD to reconcile that—because I accept the rebuke. I accept the rebuke of the forgetfulness. I accept the rebuke—that ninety-two years is arguably not much time by reason of the LORD's time, but as a good friend of some of us once to me (Craig Sarbeck) there's plenty of time—but there's no time to waste. And the LORD reminds me that I've wasted some time. We should not be wasting any more time! And thank goodness the LORD does not judge us, because we've done that to ourselves. However, He does say “Come unto me”—and then the fire from heaven may fall and provide for the purification of consciousness, because it is able to happen under control, because the truth is present, because you are present, because we are present; and then the LORD is known. I'm thrilled that you said Laura, as well as was implied and clear in your expression Robert, that there should be no reason for concern. There should be no reason for turbulence in our hearts because, as David said, the priests and the priestesses of the Order of Melchizedek here on earth; we are the cause of spirit being able to move upon the face of the waters, that indeed are troubling the waters, and yet our heart need not be troubled if we remain centered in Center, because these things are happening under control. There is the reality of the governance and of the government. That is vibrational, yes, but is also embodied because we are here. So again, it is a good day when we can acknowledge that our LORD is wise; His council is present; His love and His compassion; both His rebuke and His reconciliation, His grace and His graciousness can be received and perceived, to be utilized in the expression that is ours to bring, as we allow for the divide to no longer be a divide, that we bring the reality of the one-pointed focus of the Single Eye, so that there may be light; the darkness may be moved, and the way clear because we are here. It's a pleasure to receive that, to offer that in celebration, and to thank you Robert for being that kind of a servant, that we can know the LORD—the Lord of Love and the Lord of Truth—who is present, so that we may have life and have it more abundantly.
Anne Blaney — Thank you, Robert. Your words demonstrated the Spirit of the Single Eye. I really appreciate that demonstration in that focus that you made possible for us this morning. And I love the theme that's developing through our comments. It was only when Elijah evoked the Spirit of the Single Eye and brought to focus, “He is the LORD”, that the fire was able to fall. The prophets of Baal couldn't bring the fire down. So when the fire came down—as I could imagine in Laura’s comment, like the One Vine, which has been used to describe the body of the Son, is rooted in the earth, and it has branches—and when the fire comes down it comes and burns the whole bush. The whole bush is burning. It's so interesting isn't it, the image of fire that represents love, but it also represents purification. The two are intertwined. So these are very significant days when there are those who are at the alter, who say, “He is the God”—who are acting in that priest and priestess function. The fire does come down, even in the middle of Target parking lot, and when that happens, I think in all humility, we would observe and bless, and give thanks for the dual function of fire, and be one with the fire that ascends. And we know then that we're in the place of safety, but also that we are allowing this, you might say, sorry situation here to be brought together in oneness. And I just wanted to also note how Elijah said, “Come near unto to me”—and others have mentioned that. That that is so interesting. He didn't go to the people; he said, “Come unto me” and he was the one that was bringing that single eye, to say “He is the LORD. He is the God.” So wonderful, wonderful story! And thank you so much for conveying it with such a wonderful substance of understanding. I really appreciate it. Thanks.
Robert Merriman — Thank you, each one, for your living, and for the substance that is building through that living. In this day the Lord has a Radiant Core on earth. We see and witness it emerging, certainly in venues such as the Temple of Light, but also in unexpected nooks and crannies of God's planet. Shekinah by design is a very large tent. How good it is to welcome the people as Priests and Priestesses into the joy. But the fire that burns is under complete control, filled with peace, filled with assurance, singly focused in the Will of the One, the Christ. May the stability of our LORD be known absolutely in our hearts, and in our living as His love is extended to all those who come in His name. Praise be to God.
Steve Ventola — Robert, your silence opens a door for all of us, and we so appreciate what you've given, what you presented, what you've let us in and through. And sharing all together, we're all in awe, indeed, for sure. The silence you allowed to happen is wonderful. And the fire burns. The fire burns what doesn't belong, as Arno was mentioning. But the fire unites, and if we ever feel separated, let it be a sign that something needs to burn, and as we allow it to burn then we can know the union of the fire that comes from heaven down through our soul, out into a radiant expression. And here is the union that we're all meant to know; it's our birthright, and our joy, our most heavenly joy and earthly joy. I just want to continue in these silences—and through our days we'll have our silent moments, and our verbal moments. But to acknowledge again where we are what means the most to us. Let it be so.
Our next Temple of Light service will be in March with Arno and David; and then in April, Shirley we'll be leading our time. And then in May, Robert Kauffman and myself will be leading a theme on Conscious Healthy Aging, and we will be talking about sustaining our reason for being, individually, but also collectively. My particular Psalm verse today is, and I think it goes along with our service: “With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.” My salvation comes through our Single Eye, our single focus, and we'll look to continue along those lines, to share that time in May with Robert and myself.
